United States To Tap Strategic Gravy Reserve To Ease Crisis In United Kingdom

UK Prime Minister Theresa May expressed gratitude to the United States today after being told she would receive assistance with the ongoing KFC crisis across the pond.

What began as a shortage of chicken in some KFC outlets has worsened considerably, with gravy now in dangerously short supply.

To prevent outright civil disorder, May appealed to allies for help, though only the United States is understood to have sufficient gravy stocks on hand to be of any practical assistance.

President Trump agreed to tap the U.S. Strategic Gravy Reserve, which is held in vast tanks in Louisiana, to provide emergency relief.

The released supply should fend off the immediate threat of public revolt, though Trump warned further requests may have to be denied, as the United States needs to maintain a huge supply to fend off any potential crisis here.
